Maccabi Tel Aviv faces Hapoel Haifa on Sunday night, 20:15 at the Netanya Stadium. Ruben Micael, who joined the squad at the end of the winter transfer period has been playing extremely well and will look to keep up his fine showing in the last match of the regular season.
“I don’t like to talk about the team we are playing against,” Micael said prior to the match versus Hapoel Haifa. “I think what’s most important is what we do on the pitch. We work very well together and we are strong as a team. In my opinion, we have to set the tone with our quality and how we play.”
Do you have any feelings as we approach the Championship Playoffs and “Money Time” of the season:
“I don’t think I have any extra special feelings. If you work hard and train seriously every single day and there is a certain routine in the practice sessions while preparing intently for each match whether it’s the regular season or the playoffs, then you’ll always try to be at your best.”
On his recent form:
“I am very comfortable at Maccabi. For me, it’s important as to how we play as a team. I don’t play alone but with ten other teammates on the pitch. Of course, I’m happy to help the club achieve good results.”
About the praise received up to now:
“I’m happy that I’ve made a positive impression but I don’t like to talk about what I’ve done. I’d prefer to do the talking on the pitch and whoever sees me can decide whether I deserve the praise and compliments or not.”
